## Summary

**This bill would create a new federal grant program to support "community paramedicine" and expand mobile-integrated care by trained paramedics in rural and underserved areas.** It focuses on reducing non-emergency use of emergency services and improving access to primary care for people with acute and chronic needs. - Families and patients in rural and medically underserved areas would get more local, on-site care options from specially trained paramedics instead of always going to emergency departments. This aims to improve access for people with chronic conditions and limited primary care. - Tribal communities would get priority access with 15 percent of annual grant funds reserved for applicants serving Tribal areas and formal notice to Tribal leadership about the program. - Local EMS agencies, counties, Tribal organizations, and nonprofit coalitions could apply for grants to hire staff, buy equipment, certify personnel, run public outreach, and cover medical director oversight costs. - Grants would be limited in size and duration with a $750,000 cap for single applicants, a $1.5 million cap for joint applicants, awards up to five years, and administrative cost limits of 10 percent in year one and 5 percent thereafter. - For-profit entities would be ineligible but grantees may subcontract or provide subgrants to governmental partners. Reporting to the Health Resources and Services Administration would be required.
